as trading ended at midday as a mark
of respect to the memory of former Presi

rather irregular. The opening was 10
points higher to 4 points lower, on some
further covering and buying for European
account, while the late months met scat
tered realizing,, with December selling off
to 14.10c, or about 10 points net lower.
The special cable from Braill showing a
further advance in futures there, led to
renewed covering during the middle of
the morning, however, with May selling at
14.80c, and July at 14.75c, or 16 to 25
points net higher, while December rallied
to 14.25c. The close was a shade off from
the best, with prices net unchanged to 12

Chicago Grain and Provisions.
Chicago, Jan. 8. Fresh advances In the
corn market took place today owing to
explicit denials that Imports of corn from
Argentina would be authorized. The
market closed unsettled, to lc net
higher, with January J1.48 to $1.48 and
May $1.41 to 1.41. Oats finished o
oft to a like advance, and provisions vary
ing from 80o decline to a rise of t cents.
As soon as trading began, corn Im
mediately went to the highest prices yet
this season. Advices overnight had re
moved all doubt that -competition from
Argentina would remain under a ban.
On the bulge, however, sales to realize
profits were of liberal proportions, and
there was also a disposition evinced to
speculate for a bearish reaction, espec
ially as gossip became current that con
trary to previous belief, the February
average price on hogs would not be de
termined today. Nevertehless, when the
market had receded to about yesterday's
closing level the buying again broadened
out. and a rally waa In progress at the
end of the session, with March and May
deliveries most tn demand.

New Tork. Jan. 8. Specialties again at
tracted the attention of speculative inter
ests In today's fairly actve stock market,
although operations were suspended for
the session at 12:30 o'clock as a mark
of respect to the memory of Theodore
Roosevelt.
Trading ran mainly to tobaccos, sugars,
leathers, oils and motors in substance,
stocks of the so-called peace variety, but
also embraced high-grade specialties of
no particular classification, such as Sears
Roebuck, Woolworth and Barrett com
pany, i
Ralls were slow to get under way, but
averaged gains of 1 to 1 points towards
the close on a sudden Inquiry for St
Paul, Great Northern, Missouri Pacific,
Norfolk ft Western and Texas Pacific. A
37-potnt jump In Texas Land Trust certifi
cates was the spectacular feature of the
session..
United States Steel yielded a part of its
1-polnt advance and kindred industrials
and equipments wers sluggish and not
materially changed, while coppers eased
under further pressure.
Shippings constituted the only can
splcuous drawback. Marine preferred mak
ing an extreme decline of 3 points on
persistent reports of more serious ob
stacles to the completion of the company's
plans for tha sale of its British tonnage.
Call money opened at 6 per cent, but
the demand was so urgent as to cause an
Immediate rise to 6 per cent, at which
large sums were reported to have been
taken.
Bonds were steady, but featureless, fore
n.ost Issues recording little alteration. To

Swimming Director for
0. A. C. Exhibits Some
Fancy Stunts in Pool
G. P. Wendell, director of athletics
for the Omaha Athletic club, Tues
day night gave the first exhibition of
fancy swimming and diving in the
natatorium on the fourth floor of the
new building.
Several hundred persons witness
ed the demonstration. Prof. Wen
dell's spin dive proved particularly
popular. This feature was originated
by the performer, and consists of
his taking the same course while in
the air as the aviators take in their
famous stunt called the "tail-spin."
Another number on the program
which appealed especially to the
spectators was a stunt, also origi
nated by Prof. Wendell, who learn
ed it from the deep sea fish in the
North Sea. It represents the swinw
mer's idea of, a whale. at play. He
swims the entire length of the pool
beneath the surface of the water.
Particular pleasure is afforded when
the performer comes up and spouts
water 20 feet into the air-
The program consisted of 15 num
bers, and among others were the
swan dive, seal dive, cork screw
dive, imitation of the submarine and
a demonstration of the English over
arm stroke.
Prof. Wendell announced the pool,
which is said to be one of the finest
and most complete in the country,
would be open to the public in the
next few days. Swimming classes
will be organized, and several days
a week will be reserved for women
and girls, it was said.
Town Crier in France
Drums Up Crowds and
Then Reads the News
A different way of purveying news
than that of newspapers in this
country is described by Ike Feblo-
witz, formerly enmployed in the
Bee composing room, in a recent
letter from St. Aigon, near 'Tours,
France, where he is in the service.
"This is a very old fashioned
place no street cars, shows or
newspapers the last one in which I
n most interested. Last week an
old Frenchman came down the
street with a big drum. He would
stop at each corner, drum for a
while, then read the latest dispatch
es from Paris to many interested
French people. It was quite a
novelty at first but I am getting
accustomed to their ways now.
"On Sundays the farmers come
to town with their cows, pies, rab
bits etc; merchants with their
wares and place tents along the
busy streets. I have seen the same
in "reel" life, now I have a chance
to see the real way in which it is
done," he wrote.

Omaha Red Cross Boys
and Men with Hospital
Unit Meet in France
Nebraska boys in the Red Cross
ambulance service and men with
base hospital No. 49 had a joyous
reunion in' France, according to a
letter written home by j Clyde L".
Nicholson, son of Mr. and Mrs.
John Nicholson, who is in France
with the hospital unit.
The Red Cross ambulance drivers
were inducted into the service in
Omaha only a few months ago and
landed in France last month. They
were on their way from Tours to
Dijon, when they learned that -hey
re not far from the place where
the Nebraska base hospital is loca
ted, and immediately decided to
visit the hospital.
The coming of the Omaha boys
was a complete surprise to the doc
tors and medical attendants at he
hospital, who gave the visitors a
royal welcome. Many of the men
who met there were formerly per
sonal friends, according to Nichol
son's letter, in which he states that
three, of the boys in the ambulance
unit were fellows who had been in
his own class in school.
There are very few patients left
in the Nebraska hospital in France,
and the men are expecting orders
allowing them to sail for the United
States soon.
Three Omaha doctors of the un t
have already been given their un
charges and will return home yen.
Thev are Cants. Tohn R. Potts.
James Patton and G. W. Dishong. '
Lt. Sanford Gifford is another Onia-i
ha doctor with the unit.

lodged in the matron's room at the
city jail.

ed for forgery.
Poulous was arrested Tuesday af
ternoon on Mike's say so in his
place of business, 101 North Six
teenth street and held in jail until
late last night when he proved he
was not guilty.

the blank check several weeks ago
when he was employed by Poulous.
Mike will be turned over to the ju
venile authorities.
